That is the record which J. L Brandenburg of New York city says he established with his Marmon 34. He adds that ne had another tire, carried af a spare, and it is still in go0d condition. Two others who claim to have made tires do extraordinary service re Earl Tiffany of Astoria, Long island, and John 8. Pillebury of the Pillsbury Flour Mille company. ‘Tiffany says he has made 16,000 miles on the original tires, traveling between Alaska and New York. Pilisbury declares that one of the tires he put on in February, 1919, is still in use and the others didn't be gin to break down until 18,000 miles had been covered. Both Tiffany and Pillsbury alee | have Marmon cars. Gets 4 New Concern Exp Four new Buick models of the four-cylinder type, just now placed on the market, have attracted the attention of the motoring public, ac- in Seattle for the cars, The new models include @ roadster and five-passenger touring car, a three-passenger coupe and @ five | passenger sedan, | Explaining the models, the com | pany states; “In motor construction Buick has adhered’ to the valve-n-head princt- | years, “The cylinder bore ts three and | three-eights inches with stroke of four and three-fourths inches. The motor develops between 36 and 40 | brake horse power “Weatures af motor construction cording to Bldridge-Buick Co., agents jple with which its name has been | |so prominently connected for 20/ NIAGARA FALIA, N Y, Aug. 6—Scott’s modern care van, consisting of 26 families who are going to Buhl, Ida, from Brooklyn to settle on an irrigated plot of 5,000 acres, was here yesterday. Tho settlers left here early today for the West. The care van is behind its schedule, seven days being used to cross New York, Buhl is expected to be reached Sept. 1. eee EN ROUTE, New York to Idaho, Aug. 6. — Thirteen year-old Muriel Soott has a job any kid would envy. Bhe's the bugler of the motor car avan that is carrying 28 Brooklyn families to homesteads im Idaho. Muriel dressed in khaki and a cowgirl hat, “blows up” the Argo- naute in the morning and sounds “tape” at night as the modernized | “forty-niners” progress on thelr elx weeks’ trip to Idaho. Camping along the road each night, the caravan ts a huge frolic in the eyes of the 11 children be- tween seven and 16. Half a dozen others under six, including the youngest ploncer, stx-montheold Mary Cecilia Walah—can’t quite un. derstand what it's all about, except that it's a lot more fun than living tn Brooklyn. Bugler Murtel te the @aughter of Willlam <A. Scott, commanderin- chief of the caravan. Ghe sits be side him on the front eeat of his auto, which leads the procession of cars, Bach car hae @ trailer that carries’ more comforts than al) the early day “prairie schooners” put to- gether, Scott, who ts taM and very thin and bald-headed, ts the man whe conceived the idea of collecting al the dinwatisfied city folk he could find and piloting them to new homes on a tract of irrigated government land—40 acres per Buhl, Idaho. Strapped to the side of Scotts car is a Winchester rifle presented to him just before the caravan left Brooklyn, The rifle is silver mount ed and ts a duplicate of the one car ried by the late William F. Cody @uffalo Bilin. “We're getting back te the land,” explained Scott. “All of us, cially the children, will be healthier and happier out in the open. I'm through with city life.” Not everybody, however, left the jelty without a pang. Mrs. Arthur Vermire, mother of four children, turned around and took one last look at Brooklyn, But, unlike Lot's wife, she wasn't turned to salt— only to salty tears, “I loved Brooklyn with afl tts racket,” she said. “I hope I'll love IdaN as well.” Far more enthustastio was Peter A. Vanderput, who presented his butcher shop to his eon, and started out to grow alfalfa with “all bridges burned behind him.” The company will form a colony with homes clustered together to provide social evenings when each ‘day's work out on the farms is done. Buick Models lains Points are the large three-bearing crank- shaft and 121nch long connecting rods, extra long rods being provided to reduce vibration to a minimum. A circulating splash oiling system gives automatic lubrication thruout. ‘Another important feature, which | is standard equipment on all Buick cars, is the automatic carburetor heat control thru which ideal vapor. izing conditions are obtained, “The transmission is of selective sliding gear type, three epeeds for. | ward and one reverwe, The univer. #al joint is of standard Buick con: | struction, being virtually an inte-| gral part of the transmission and au- | jtomatieally lubricated from the | transmission, “The chassis ts lubricated with the high pressure Alemite system. Delco starting and lighting system is standard equipment.” $100 CASH IN MONTHLY PRIZES AN you have to do te win ts to save the vote-coupens advertisers on these two pages give you with all cash purchases of S10 eape- | or more as follows: If at the close of the first big contest, December 15, 1: Rave th mbit com of hn fet ig conten, Deemer 1, 188, Zou hate car will be yours, $100 Cash Pica WILL BE AWARDED AS FOLLOWS: First Prize .....
